Let us understand that these things do not take place in a true democracy, and ii thev do take place then the society in which they an found is a corrupt one. Let us under stand that Richard Nixon is not only the political leader of this country but also a repre sentative of its character. That Richard Nixon received the lar gest political landslide vote in the history of the presidency of this country.

Block Colleges Still Heed To Compensate DURHAM-Dr. Vernon Clark, associate professor of ' biology at North Carolina Cen tral University, feels that a number of black colleges and universities must be preserved, at least "for such time as deem ed necessary" the inequities Of education before college. "I do not believe that any minority will ever realize its full potential to develop aca demically, socially, and econo nomically in a segregated sys tem as exists in our nation. My position is that the solution for blacks to move inot the so-called mainstream of the American system," Dr. Clark said in a recent speech at the annual convention of Beta Kappa Chi Scientific Society Science in Philadelphia. Nevertheless, Dr. Clark told the ,'redominantly black group in his farewell speech as presi dent of the National Institute of Science, "I also believe that there is still a need for some black institutions of higher leraning." "As a symbol of black to getherness and true black pride, 1 would like to see black people throughout America contribute enormous sums of money to aid in the development of black leadership by those whose po tential can best be realized and developed in an academic en vironment free from the com petitive pressures of the pre dominantly white institutions," i WEEKLY LEGISLATIVE REPORT mvotiwmj BY JOHN EDWARDS" .ywwismf City Sets Up Four Pitch In Centers Spring time means cleanup time for most of us. It's a time for sorting out and sprucing up. As closets are cleaned, your garbage cans may not be able to hold all the extra trash. The City of Durham recent ly established four PITCH IN Centers throughout the city. So if your trash is piling up between collections you can now take it to your nearest PITCH IN Center. The extra refuse sites are located in the parking lot of Durham County Stadium on Stadium Drive in the northern section of the city; on Third Fork Road off of Archdale Drive to the south; the parking lot of Hillandale Reservoir to the west; and the parking lot at the E. D. Mickle Recreation Center on Alston Avenue. In addition to the new PITCH IN Centers the Sanitary Landfill is also open for extra refuse disposal. Hours are: Monday through Saturday, 7:00-6:00. There are three large containers at the entrance to the landfill for use after hours. Mayor James R. Hawkins noted that citizens are using several areas in the City as dumping grounds. "The Sani tation Department has estab lished these PITCH IN Centers to make it easy and convenient for citizens to dispose of their extra refuse," Mayor Hawkins stated.

"It's like having to impeach the incumbent before you can run against him," the Harlem Congressman said. "The new law would make it impossible to challenge a license unless the broadcaster actually broke the law," he said.

McCall, who is president of WLIB in New York City, sug gested that the Congress adopt an alternative plan which would permit renewal only if the ap plicant "is legally, financially attuned to meeting his commu nity's needs and interests." "Now that we have gained entry into the business we can not close the door on other blacks," McCall said. "We have to support a process by which blacks can challenge broadcast ers who have not been respon sive to the community."

Training Key To Developing Child Training is the key to devel oping a young child's concern for others, according to a study reported recently by National Institute of Mental Health scientists in HEW's Health Ser vices and Mental Health Ad ministration. Dr, Marian Radke Yarrow and her associates, Dr. Carolyn Zahn Waxier and Dr. Phyllis M. Scott, feel that too little is known about pro-social beha vior, and have set out to learn more about potentialities for altruistic responsiveness in the very young. They chose for their subj ects 104 nursery school children between the age s of three and six years. Trained observers note the children's responses to distress Zafa Court No. 41 Chantresses Presents Fashion Revue At Oldham Towers the preservation of a number of black colleges "Because I do not believe that at this moment in the history of the American blacks that they are ready, in masses, to fully de velop in a strictly integrated academic community due to aca demic handicaps imposed on them by a segregated sys tem." He said, "Whether we face it or not, far. too many black students, due to the ravages of past and present segregation, do not possess the reading skills, the skills of basic mathe matics, nor the discipline to compete in an environment of vivacious competition that is far too often characteristic of so-called white education." The NCCU teacher said, "My hope would be that this kind of approach would not necessarily last forever, since I would like to envision the day that, as 'Black children receive a good education and fair treat ment in the Integrated public school system and, most im portantly, as the hearts of men change so as to accept and treat all men as brothers, we all can live as children of God." Easter fashions were on parade when Zafa Court No. 41 Chantresses presented a Pre-Teen Fashion Revue on Sunday, April is, at Oldham Towers. Thirty-two children be tween the ages of 2 through 13 modeled their fashions. The children were divided into three age groups ages 2-8, 7-8 and 10-13.

Black Work Force is Expanding, U. S. Labor Department Reports WASHINGTON The black labor force has been expanding at a somewhat greater pace than the white labor force, the U.S. Labor Department's Bu reau of Labor Statistics reports. The Negro labor force has expanded by 260,000 or 2.8 percent since the first quarter of 1972, while the number of whites in the labor force rose by 1.6 million or 2.1 percent. There was little difference in the overall rate of labor force participations for the two groups in the first quarter of 1973; the percentage of the ci vilian noninstitutlonal popula tion in the labor force was 60.5 percent for whites and 60.2 percent for Negroes. Employment of Negroes has risen by 400,000 or 4.6 percent, since the first quarter of 1972, while the number of whites with jobs has risen by about 2.1 million, or 2.8 percent. Despite the relatively more ra pid rise in Negro employment, the percentage of the poupla tion with jobs remained sub stantially lower among Negroes than among whites 54.8 per cent compared with 57.8 per cent. Both races experienced some reduction in the incidence of unemployme nt in the first quar ter of 1973. The rate for Ne groes dropped from 9.9 to 9.0 percent. Thus, the ratio of the Negro rate to the white rate remained about 2 to 1. Except for a narrowing during the 1969-71 period of economic slowdown and initial stages of recovery, the Negor white rate ratio has generally held at 2 to 1 or more since the Korean War. About 200,000 Negroes were classified as discouraged workers in the first quarter of 1973. They accounted for. one-third of the toatl, com pared with a one-fourth average over the past 2 years.

These situations include children eating ice cream cones in the presence of ne who has none, a dog whose chain has wound too tightly around a tree, an adult who bumps her head on a table while picking up a toy from the floor, and 36 other distresses. Some are used to sensitize and train the young subjects, while others are used to test the results. What have the scientists learned? So far, evidence shows that the beat way to ensure an in crease in concern for others is through training under a special set of conditions. Children de monstrating the highest degree for others are found where parents show such concern in their every-day living. Parents must also be responsive to their children's feelings, and point out to their children in specific circumstances the de sirability of and best method for -altruistic e xpression. The absence of any of these mani festations in a parent sharply reduces the potential for al truism in the child. Children's reactions as long as six months following their participation in the study indicate that a lasting impression can be ma de during these early years. As a long-range goal it 4s hoped that a better understand ing of the basis for proeodal concern will gradually strength en the sensitivity of people in their relationships with others.
